About Vara Outdoor Swimming Pool
Welcome to one of the absolute highlights of the summer in the neighbouring municipality. Here, a refreshing adventure awaits the entire family at a facility that truly captures the essence of a perfect Swedish summer day. With vast areas for both play and relaxation, the pool is an ideal day trip if you are staying at Valle Camping and wish to swap the tranquility of the lakes for fast-paced water slides and heated water.
About Vara utomhusbad
This outdoor swimming facility is an impressive site covering 15,000 square metres, located centrally in Vara. The main draw is the pleasant temperature; the pool is kept at around 28 degrees, making it inviting to jump in whether the sun is scorching or the day is a bit cooler. There is something for all swimming levels here, from the large 25-metre pool for fitness and fun to a dedicated children's pool for the youngest visitors.
For those seeking thrills, the three large water slides are definite favourites. But the facility is more than just swimming. The expansive lawns invite you to picnic and sunbathe, while more active visitors can enjoy the playground or the large sand area, which is perfect for a game of football or beach volleyball. It is a place where you can easily spend an entire day together.
Things to do at Vara utomhusbad
In addition to swimming and playing in the heated pools, the facility offers several activities on land. You can challenge your travel companions to ball sports on the dedicated sand courts or let the children run off some energy at the playground. The large park-like environment also makes it possible to find your own quiet corner to read a book or enjoy a packed snack between dips.
How deep is the water?
The facility is designed to suit different ages and needs. There is a large 25-metre pool with varying depths suitable for both swim training and play. For the youngest members of the family, there is a shallower children's pool where they can get used to the water in a safe environment.

- Free for youths: In a generous initiative, all children and young people up to the age of 19 can use the outdoor pool free of charge.
- Land activities: Don't forget to bring a volleyball or football to make use of the excellent sand court.
